At Nerdy (NYSE: NRDY) - the company behind Varsity Tutors - we're redrawing the blueprint of learning. Our Live + AI platform fuses real-time human expertise with proprietary generative-AI systems, setting a new bar for measurable academic impact at global scale.

In an era where great employees can deliver 10-times the leverage of the merely good, we back those who play to win.
Fortune favors the bold. Join us.

- **Free-market rigor**

You design, build, and run what you ship; accountability is a feature, not a bug.

living our leadership principles and using AI effectively are formally measured and rewarded.
- **Relentless exploration**
Push the frontier of generative AI in live learning and - because only the paranoid survive - questioning every legacy assumption along the way.
